Pass/Fail

Workman Harness materials and construction comply with all requirements and
applicable tests.

Pass

3.2.2.2 Straps. Load-bearing straps shall be made from

synthetic materials of continuous filament yarns made from
light and heat resistant fibers having strength, aging, and
abrasion resistance characteristics equivalent or superior to
polyamides. Load bearing straps shall have a minimum
width of 1-5/8 inches (41mm) and strap ends shall be
finished so as to prevent fraying. When tested in
accordance with reference 8.3.1, strap material shall
develop a breaking strength of not less than 5,000 pounds
(22.2kN).

Workman Harness load-bearing straps meet these requirements.

Pass

3.2.2.3 Thread and Stitching. Lock stitching shall be used

on all sewn strap joints. Thread shall be of virgin synthetic
material having strength, aging, abrasion resistance, and
heat resistance characteristics equivalent of superior to
polyamides. Thread shall be of the same type as the
webbing and shall be of contrasting color to facilitate
inspection.

Threads used in Workman Harnesses meet these requirements.

Pass

3.2.2.4 The harness shall provide support for the body

across the lower chest, over the shoulders, and around the
thighs when a tensile load is applied to the fall arrest
attachment element. The harness, when properly fitted and
used, shall prevent fallout. The fall arrest attachment shall
be located at the back (dorsal) position.

Workman Harness meets these requirements.

Pass

3.2.2.5 When more than one attachment element exists on

a harness, the purpose and limitations of each element
shall be designated by the manufacturer.

User Instructions for MSA Harnesses contain purpose and limitations for
attachment elements.

Pass

3.2.2.5a Harnesses equipped with a front-mounted

attachment element for fall arrest shall be used only as a
part of a personal fall arrest system that limits the
maximum free fall distance to two feet (0.6m) and limits the
maximum arrest force to 900 pounds (4.0kN).

User Instructions for MSA Harnesses contain these limitations.

Pass

3.2.2.6 The harness, when statically tested in accordance

with 4.3.3.1, shall not release the test torso. Slippage
through any adjustable connection shall not exceed one
inch (25mm). Buckle and eyelet type of construction shall
not tear a distance greater than that to the adjacent eyelet.

Workman Harness meets these requirements.

Pass

3.2.2.6a For harnesses equipped with a front-mounted

attachment element for fall arrest, test statically in
accordance with 4.3.3.1a. The harness shall not release
the test torso. Slippage through any adjustable connector
shall not exceed one inch (25mm). Buckle and eyelet type
of construction shall not tear a distance greater than that to
the adjacent eyelet.

Workman Harnesses with front-mounted attachment elements meet these

requirements

Pass

3.2.2.7 The harness, when dynamically tested in

accordance with 4.3.3.2, shall not release the test torso.
The test torso shall remain suspended for five minutes after
drop testing. No load-bearing element shall break or
separate from the body support. The angle at rest
measured between the torso vertical center line and the
vertical shall not exceed 30 degrees after the test torso
comes to rest.

Workman Harness meets these requirements.

Pass

3.2.2 Full Body Harness Component

3.2.2.1 Materials and Construction. Harness materials
and construction shall be of a type that will result in a
finished product capable of meeting all requirements of
3.2.2 and applicable tests set forth in Section 4.
